Description

In 1982, seven people in the Chicago area died after taking Tylenol capsules that someone had deliberately poisoned with cyanide. The murders sparked nationwide panic, a massive product recall, and changes to medicine packaging that still protect consumers today. More than four decades later, no one has been convicted of the killings. The terrifying true story behind something we barely notice: the safety seal on a medicine bottle. 💀 Strange Detour — Take a detour into the unbelievable. #DarkHistory #TylenolMurders #HistoryShorts #StrangeHistory #unsolvedmystery #truecrimestories In this video: 1982 Tylenol murders, Chicago Tylenol murders, Tylenol poisoning 1982, cyanide Tylenol, Tylenol recall, medicine safety seal history, tamper evident packaging, unsolved historical crimes, dark history, strange history, true crime history, history shorts, Strange Detour, Professor Bones
